Sombra in game character theory. (Controlling a Mech/Robot from a computer.)

News & Discussion | Sombra ARG

This entire time she's shown to be a tech/computer genius of sorts. I think it's safe to assume that her character would not directly participate in combat. Instead controlling a some sort of Battle Mech. While being completely safe behind a computer screen. Or even possible she's an "AI" and has no real physical form. (Is there proof out there yet that's she's Omnic at all?)

Admittedly I haven't really followed the whole Sombra uncovering going on. So I have only a tenuous understanding of current theories surrounding her.

It's a small stretch. While this doesn't 100% answer who or what she is. This will ask what her playable character model will be like when she releases.

I randomly thought this when rewatching the "We Are Overwatch" trailer. At 45 seconds Genji is sitting on a mech. It seems active because of the from display is still working.

Would be cool, and the idea does fit the Overwatch Universe. Even if it's not Sombra doing so.

Thoughts?
